T 0 all whom. it may concern:

Be it known that I, Br'iLA-ZsAnNAY, citizen of Hungary, residing at Belleville, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful In1- provements in Mounted Combination Toys and Carousels of which the following is a specification. Y

This invention relates to mechanical toys, referenceto a toy mounted on .'vheels,-an(l adapted to be pro polled along the floor or ground,

The invention has for an object to provide atoy of this type having a novel arrange ment of moving devices or figures.

tion, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and tothe appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.

F i'g:.1 of-the drawings is a side view of a mechanical toy constructed according to the invention; 1'

Fig.2 is a partial sideview, but showing the parts in a different position from that shown in Fig.1. I

Fig. 3 is a horizontalseCtion on the line 8-3of Fig. 1 Fig. '4 is a transverse section on the line 4 l'of Fig. 1. l l Fig. 5 isa fragmentary transverse section on the line 5+5 of Fig.1;

1g. 6 .is a vertical sectional view of the shoulders and head of one ofth'e manikins;

wheels 11 andrear wheels 12.

' Referring no'w to the drawings,- therefei cnce numeral 10 indicatesfa longitudinally: extending frame "element mountedon front The rearwheels 12 serve as drive'wheels and are fixed on a shaft 13, the frame being bifurcated at its rear end as at 10 date certain drive mechanism carried by the shaft 13. -The front. wheels may be con 'nected to a suitable transverse axle ele-, ment 14.

' Fixed to the'front portion of the frame element 10 are diagonal cross bars 16 which support posts 17 whose upper ends have mounted thereon a conical hood 18. Journaled at opposite ends in the hood 18 and j frame 10 is a vertical shaft 19 on, which is fixed a disk 20% a distance below the hood18. This disk 20 has mounted thereon a series leg elements joined to accomlno- CARO'USEL.

One of; the hands is conbyste'el wires also as of the manikin'are jointed at i nected to a crankiarm'hidonthe shaft 32 and the other has a-pivotal co the top of the housing 30.;

' manikin 40. is fixed to a plate 58 carried by a transverse handle extensions 60 at one end *0 brackets 4:5 on the'plat'form 30 and havejripid links d6 connected to their opposite ends the other ends oi? these links 4.6 ieino' connected to the ends of rock levers l? rulcrinned at 48 on a bracket d9 on the frame 10. The opposite ends of these rock levers 4-? have connected thereto the vice. and positioned to have the appearance of propelling the same. vThis manikin is shown as having the legs jointed at the knees asat 56, and pivotally attached to the while ithehead 55 is mounted on the body similarly to the head of the The bodyof this manikin 55 bar 59 joining pair of I projecting rearwardly from the' frame 10 and then upwardly and connectedby a handle bar 61;, adapted to be grasped by the personpropelling the toy. The arms 55*"01: the manihin are jointed at the elbows and pivotally attached to the rest upon a cross bar 62 connecting the tops of a pair of posts such as 63 extend in'g upward. from the handle extensions 60.

To operate the legsoi the manikin 55 a pair of links (35 extend rearwardly from the rocklevers d7 and are connected at their rear ends to, a pair of arms 66 hinged at their upper ends to the handle members and having their lower ends projecting downward behind laterally projecting pins 67 lined in the ankles of the mani-kin. The rods 50 which operate the rocklevers 47 are connected at diametrically opposed points on the respective crank disks. 51, thus causing the levers d7, and legs of the mannikin,. to'move oppositely with respect to one another. Y

As will be apparent, when the toy is propelled along the floor or ground, or vother surface, the disk 20, carryingthejhorses 23 and cars 22, wlll be caused to revolve, the H manikinglO will have the appearance of body asat 61 andin consequence the playing hand organ, musical sounds being given off by the parts 37' and ll, while the manikm l will have the semblance of walking, and propelling the toy.

Having thus described myinvention what I claim as new and'desire to protect by Letters Patent of the United States is as follows:

1. A toy comprising a frame, wheels on V which said frame is mounted, a music box device supported on said frame, a, pair of mannikins supported on said frame,'one of said manikins'having an arm formed; with a hinge-joint at the elbow and pivotally attached to the body of the mannikin, the other mannikin having its legs vpivotally attached to its body, and means whereby the free end of the said arm is moved in a circular path in similitude of operating-said music box device, andlated in a similitude of walking.

i 2. A toy comprising a frame, wheels on which said frame is mounted, a carousel and a music box device supported on said'frame, a pair of mannikins. supported on said frame, and having their bodies rigid with respect thereto, one of said mannikins having' a jointed and pivotally attached arm, the other mannikin having oscillatable legs, a rotary element to which the free end of said arm is connected, said rotary member being arranged to simulate the operating member oi": said music box. device, a pair of oscillatory members adapted to have pushing engagement with the said legs, and

means adapted to be operated by said wheels for rotating said carousel and saidelement and oscillating said members. 3. In a toy, a-wheeled vehicle, having its body supported by the frame thereo't and having its legs pivotally attached to the body, and means operated by the vehicle wheels for giving said legs a forward swinging movement, said means comprising a pair of rock levers operatively connected to the vehicle wheels, a. pairof arms pivoted adjacent the manik-in, links connecting said arms and rock levers, and a pair of pins projecting laterally from the legs of the manikin.

lntestimony whereof I have endured my. signature; v 3
